LCL ( Less Container Load )

"Partial load refers to a load which only partially uses the available freight space of the means of transport. In this way, the entire transport can be made more economical. Combined part loads are more time-consuming than full load transports.Whereas, LCL which is Less than Container Load is handy when the exporter doesn’t have to book an entire container because the size of the cargo doesn’t demand that much space. Smaller shipments that need to be sent economically and are less time-sensitive are sent on an LCL container he LCL category and create a ‘consolidation’ by merging several of their LCL cargoes."
